Limited hangout by Callahan (allegedly an "Agency Man") who just happened to be in Nanjing on an "avian flu" project, when sars-cov-2 emerged in Wuhan. Close links to Robert Kadlec at BARDA/HHS, exposed by @hijodelcuervo and @_whitneywebb and @AlexisBadenMaye and my humble self.

2. Some very interesting comments in the article relevant to sars-cov-2 origins investigation which support claims in our third report regarding bat sampling activities by Wuhan Scientists.

3. Dangers inherent in Field Sampling of Bats
"In many cases, infections attributed to biocontainment laboratory activities actually occurred outside the lab, often during field collection of viral samples"

4. Razor Thin Margins
"the margins for personal protection during these expeditions are razor thin. The fact that researchers are not infected every time they do a field collection is a question that continues to stump us"

5. Two Asian Cases
In 2 Asian cases, “lab-acquired infections” were actually acquired during field collection, symptoms were delayed for 2 and 3 days, after researchers had gone back to the lab.

6. Hiding Errors, Saving Face.
"In China, if a researcher develops symptoms and suspects lab infection, they are inclined to hide the mistake from their superiors"

7. Callahan's Proposal
@franciscodeasis has been doing that groundwork for a year and a half, mapping all known field trips.
Without Chinese cooperation on the ground, the final proposal is difficult to envisage,

9. Callahan's Second Proposal
" if blood sample from villages around bat caves remained unchanged over the years, but blood samples from Wuhan citizens started showing evidence of an infection from a WIV Virology virus, then that data would support the lab leak scenario"

10. Common Ground or Hardball?
Callahan touts the biodefense lobby, CIA, DARPA long standing program of academic and research cooperation with China, something Covid-19 managed to derail.
This is a topic Callahan is intimately involved with....
